Effect of increasing mean blood pressure (BP) by injecting an alpha adrenergic agonist on averaged superior mesenteric nerve responses elicited by a train of electrical stimuli delivered to vestibular afferents. Arrows indicate the latency of the stimulus. When blood pressure was normal (98 mmHg, top), stimulation of the vestibular nerve elicited large changes in sympathetic nerve activity. However, when blood pressure was raised modestly (132 mm Hg, bottom), the responses were attenuated. Vertical calibration, 1 μV; time scale, 100 msec. Adapted from (170), with permission.
